What we build

THE QUICK TAKE

Fixed scope · No hourly billing

Bolder Apps builds location features on Google Maps Platform: in-app maps, Places autocomplete, geocoding, distance and routing, ETAs and live provider tracking. About 1 in 5 of the app builds we scoped in 2026 use it, most often for on-demand services, discovery feeds and field teams.

The kinds of things operators ask us to ship.

No fluff. These are real builds operators in the field actually need.

The conversations that bring buyers here.

Find Nearby

Users need to find the closest providers or places to them and see them on a map.

Where Is My Pro

Customers keep calling to ask when the technician will arrive. We want live tracking with an ETA.

Clean Addresses

Bad addresses are causing missed visits. We need autocomplete and validation at checkout.

Distance-Based Pricing

We charge by distance and need the app to calculate it reliably.

Bold Answers to Bolder Questions.

Can't find what you're looking for? Get in touch with our team.

Do you build live tracking with Google Maps?

Yes. We build provider location sharing, live map views and road-routed ETAs for on-demand and field service apps.

How do you keep Google Maps costs under control?

We pick the right APIs for each screen, cache place data where the terms allow, and estimate your monthly usage cost by user tier during scoping.

Can you use another map provider?

Yes. When pricing or design calls for it we also build with Apple MapKit, Mapbox and MapLibre. We recommend one during scoping.
